In August 2011, GreenReaper began working for GameStop in Irving, Texas after their acquisition of Impulse from Stardock.[25] As of October 2013, he is taking a career break to further develop the websites he maintains, and Metapix, an online gallery management program targeted towards the needs of furry fans. He returned to the UK in August 2014.

In December 2013, GreenReaper mentioned that he "has a different opinion... as to the proper use of pronouns",[26] and might not use the preferred pronouns of some transgender individuals. Discussion with those who considered his opinion to be transphobic revealed instead that, to him, pronouns implied sex, not gender,[27] and using 'he' or 'she' to refer to those who had not undergone sex reassignment surgery could "[convey] an inaccurate fact",[28]. despite typical convention regarding pronouns in the English language.[29]

When pointed out to him that misgendering a transgender person can be a disservice to them[30] and other negative consequences that accompany trans visibility,[31][32][33] GreenReaper responded, "Ultimately your wish to feel safe does not trump my wish to feel honest."

While engaging with those experienced with the impact of such usage on transgender individuals,[34] GreenReaper maintained his wish to avoid "what I believe to be false factual statements",[35] but said he was "willing to make accommodations"[36] by avoiding use of gendered pronouns for those in transition[37] in favour of their name, or the singular they.[28] He also said that, if anything, he identified as female gender-wise.[38]

In March 2014, GreenReaper once again doubled-down on his belief that gender pronouns relate only to sex in an article by [adjective][species],[39] this time also making comments with regards to WikiFur.[clarify] Though WikiFur's policy about pronouns is to use those the subject of the article, GreenReaper stated, "Consider one practical problem: We have over 10,000 articles about people at WikiFur. We want these articles to be accurate, as far as possible. If you base pronouns on a person’s gender identity, then at any moment an article may need to be rewritten throughout to account for a change in that identity. If you base them on third-party observations of gender, they’re subject to differing opinions as to what is masculine/feminine...."[40]
